Here is a comprehensive introduction to yoga geared to men of all ages and backgrounds-whether they're athletic or sedentary, young or old, or devotees of yoga who seek new information to enhance their existing practices or neophytes just starting out on their yoga journeys. The information is presented in simple, how-to form so that you can perform a basic, yet complete, yoga session on your own. It provides an overview of all the major styles of yoga so that you can custom tailor a practice to suit your needs. In addition, Yoga for Men includes information specific to men-yoga and male health concerns, yoga for all phases of a man's life, how yoga can enhance performance for athletic activities (and your sex life!), and how yoga can be enjoyed with a partner. Yoga for Men provides today's man with a prescription for a lifestyle that unites body, mind, and spirit.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good reference book - a bit light on yoga practice however, October 24, 2004
By Dan Sherman (Alexandria, VA USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Yoga for Men: Postures for Healthy, Stress-Free Living (Paperback)
This is an unusual book, in that about half of it is a reference book that describes various types of yoga in terms of their history and style. One reviewer calls this "mumbo jumbo" but it is well written and possibly of interest if you want a better understanding of how yoga has developed and what the various forms of yoga are. The book also includes annotated references to most of its chapters, so it is possible to follow up and learn more about topics of interest -- many website addresses are included.

The other half (or so) of the book is, however, a very good guide to the "how to" of yoga, with pictures and very good text describing various yoga postures. There are all of the elements of a full yoga practice, along with sections on special topics such as yoga for those with back trouble, yoga for athletes, and yoga for men of different ages.

This is a good book, but a bit different from you standard "how to do yoga" book that has a few pages up front describing history and styles of yoga. This may not be the first or only book you read about yoga, but it is a very good book if you want to learn more about yoga or are specifically care about topics of interest to men.

4.0 out of 5 stars Men DO cry...and can do Yoga, September 28, 2006
This review is from: Yoga for Men: Postures for Healthy, Stress-Free Living (Paperback)
I think that since times are a changing, also is the attitude towards Yogi, or men that do Yoga. For centuries allowed only to men in India, I would think of someone as a retrograde if they came up to me and told me that Yoga is only for women, lossing weight or "less than men".
Yoga is for everybody, even the thoughest dudes and this is proven in this book. Filled with explanations and reasons why Yoga is good, even if you're a pumped up weightlifter, Yoga for men introduces an ancient discipline to the average western men.
A complete book, Yoga for men explains the origin of the practice, the 8 limbs of Raja Yoga (Yoga is not only twisting and bending) and the many schools of yoga today an their benefits, from Kundalini to Phoenix Rising.
The author then proceeds to lay out a simple routine to pracitce, based on the Sun Salutation.
Next, he explains how Yoga can help men in their Health, Sex life and everyday living. Finally, som supplements, Internet resources, Yogic diet, address and phones of Yoga Studios complete this great introduction to you.
If, like some reviewer here you are only looking for stretches, this is not the book for you. If you feel the need for something else in your life besides money, women and sports, give this one a try, it might surprise you.-

5.0 out of 5 stars Yoga for Men, January 15, 2004
By Jane (Marin, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yoga for Men: Postures for Healthy, Stress-Free Living (Paperback)
I have done yoga for several years. I've been trying to get my boyfriend to try it, too, because I'm sure he would benefit from it. I've been looking for a way to encourage him to do it, and then I saw a copy of Thomas Claire's Yoga for Men.  It's the first book I've seen that presents the whole spectrum of yoga especially for men. I bought a copy and gave it to my boyfriend as a gift. It really helped him to understand what yoga is all about, and even got him to start practicing yoga. He especially appreciated the clear, easy-to-understand approach of the book, and told me that it contains everything a man needs to know about yoga. I've also found lots of useful information in Yoga for Men about the various approaches to yoga and yoga resources. I highly recommend this book
